Lyrically, it's Gold. But the guitars in Purple Rain can't be beat.

Whoa, you really think so?? I'd say Purple Rain's lyrics are better, easily.

I absolutely LOVE both songs to death, but the winner here is the God-like Purple Rain.
The world is a comedy for those who think and a tragedy for those who feel.

Gold is a much better thought out song. The chant is even cooler. Also, if you read the lyrics purple rain DOESNT really make much sense, Gold at least has an ideal its tryin to portray. Its actually ABOUT somthing. WTF IS purple rain anyway? If you can give me a non subjective answer for that, ill digress.

I personally enjoy listening to Gold more than I do Purple Rain....
I love the pace, I love the lyrics, I love the messages, I love the video, I love the chorus, I love the build up and most of all, I love the mutha funkin' super jammin' guitar solo! guitar

Gold all the way! headbang thumbs up!

No doubt Gold is great song, but Purple Rain runs over Gold with a steam roller.

Yeah, exactly, that one!
I thought that harmony was great - but yeah, like you said, it's missing the guitar solo so it's not better...

Gold, by far. I get much more out of this song.

Purple Rain is very overrated.
